<Title>Volunteer with Retriever Essentials</Title>
<Tagline>Help support food access at UMBC!</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><p>Hey Retrievers </p>
    <p>Are you looking for a meaningful way to give back to our community? Join Retriever Essentials! We're a student-staff-faculty partnership dedicated to supporting food access on campus — and right now we need volunteers to help make a difference. </p>
    <p>Why It Matters</p>
    <ul>
    <li>
    <p>Retriever Essentials provides free groceries, toiletries, baby supplies, and meal swipes to any UMBC community member who needs them. </p>
    </li>
    <li>
    <p>Food insecurity among college students is real. Having access to nutritious meals and essentials supports students' physical and mental health, and helps ensure they can focus on their studies. </p>
    </li>
    </ul>
    <p>What You Can Do</p>
    <ul>
    <li>
    <p>Volunteer at the "Essential Space" free-store, help with food distribution, or support events like our Free Farmers' Market. </p>
    </li>
    <li>
    <p>Help spread the word, donate items if you can, or contribute by supporting meal-swipe sharing. </p>
    </li>
    </ul>
    <p>Getting involved is easy — just sign up via this link: <a href="https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0944A8AD23A7F8C07-60989012-retriever#/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Meal Recovery Sign-Up Sheet</a>.</p>
    <p>Every bit of help counts. Let's come together as a UMBC community to make sure no Retriever has to worry about their next meal.</p><p><a href="https://retrieveressentials.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Visit Retriever Essentials myUMBC page for more info!</a></p>
    <p>Thanks &amp; Go Retrievers!</p></div>
